Rangers Banter Archive April 01 2019

 

Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


01 Apr 2019 19:49:49
Dont care what anyone else says we are getting closer we are a much better team than last year. We need two good strikers in the summer a centre half and someone to replace Kent. That's selling morelos of course can't keep him he's a marked man up here no coming back. Thought we played good at times yesterday got to keep the faith.



01 Apr 2019 20:30:23
Banger - there you go fixed your moniker for you.



01 Apr 2019 21:46:38
Roaster. There's yours sorted.



01 Apr 2019 22:56:25
We should be closer to them banxger. There was only one team winning that game yesterday when it went 10 v 10 and that was us, then we go and do what we have been doing all season and make an ar$e of it. Can't believe we lost that game, they are nothing special and we let them off again. šŸ‘.



01 Apr 2019 23:04:31
sooker. that's yours fixed.



02 Apr 2019 07:54:16
Think Celtics regression is there for all to see. Scott Brown and his antics will keep you happy for now however another exit in Europe in August and maybe we improve again and cut out these costly mistakes and heā€™ll be the first to be written off by your ā€œfansā€ as past it. Disappointing from us since January but weā€™ll be back and our fans will be there too!



02 Apr 2019 08:22:44
If Rangers have improved and still a distant trophy prospect. How do they expect to make a stiffer challenge after getting rid of Morelos and Kent goes back to his parent club?



02 Apr 2019 09:31:45
next year Celtic will strengthen there is no doubt about that and if they get Griffiths back on form Then i can see us being no where near them again come next season.
For us to even get close to them we are going have to spend money to bring in half a dozen quality players and hope we get the best out of the ones we signed this year like barisic grezda katic Murphy.
Then have the younger ones like docherty Jones hastie rudden mccorie Middleton kelly backing the team up and pushing for starting roles.
And get rid of mccauley dorrans flanagan fodringham rossiter Defoe davis coulibaly wallace polster worral.
and morelos and kent will probably go as well.



02 Apr 2019 10:05:10
Celtic have regressed which makes us look as if we have progressed, we have not progressed. Said this weeks ago. Celtic are very poor yet are 13 points clearšŸ˜©šŸ‘.



02 Apr 2019 11:17:22
Who"s side are you on ballochblue lol.



02 Apr 2019 11:41:57
Coldo we can't be that poor if we are 13 points ahead.



02 Apr 2019 11:58:33
Craig agree with most names you say to go but definitely not pollster and rossiter, why them mate.



02 Apr 2019 12:14:01
Philtim88, my point is that you's are nowhere near as good as you's were last season and that has made it look as if we have progressed or closed the gap. You's have regressed, we have not progressed. Last seasons celtic team would have buried a 10 man rangers yet we equalised and when it went 10 v 10 even the biased of celtic fans would admit that rangers looked the most likely to win the game until tav made a can't of himself again. šŸ‘.



02 Apr 2019 12:30:27
Coldo for 20min.



02 Apr 2019 12:42:41
Philtim88, yes the last 20min when we scored at 10 v 11 then when it went 10 v 10 we were the better team and looked more likely to win it. Then tav did a tav. šŸ‘.



02 Apr 2019 12:57:26
Jboy the reason i include these two players as i just do not see gerrard using these two players going forward and competition for places in midfield is only get tougher if we add the creative midfielders we need in the centre of park.
and rossiter is on a good wage that could be used elsewhere and polster just don't see him getting into this team.
People think because we played well against Celtic we are not far away but league titles are not won against Celtic its against the likes of Aberdeen killie hibs Livingstone st johnstone Dundee were we have drooped point that's the games we need to win and they decide where the title goes not the Celtic games.
So this is where we need the extra quality added to the squad to catch Celtic in the league rather than more squad players.



02 Apr 2019 13:34:44
I would be very surprised if rossister has a future with us, wage could be better spent as we will be look to add better in the summer. As for polster, never saw him play so will reserve judgementšŸ‘.



02 Apr 2019 14:42:45
Craig and coldo very difficult to get rid if a player has a contract.
Rossiter has played last ten, 90 minutes so worth the chance in last year.
Pollster main position is right back, my goodness we need one of them.



02 Apr 2019 16:40:52
Jboy, rossiter isn't as good as jack kamara and mccrorie so why waste his wage on him when it could be better spent to actually improve our midfield. I don't care if he has played the last 10 games @ 90 min. That is irrelevant. He's not what we need, far from itšŸ‘.



02 Apr 2019 18:17:27
Coldo u r entitled to your opinion, what I am saying he is under contract, 10 k a week we can't just get rid of.



02 Apr 2019 20:06:30
jboy21 a think a few teams down south would take him off our hands and possibly even get a fee or sell on percentage for rossiter.
He is a good player but mccorie should be that defence mid next season and then kamara for me if we play with 2.



02 Apr 2019 21:56:58
I know we can't jboy but as craig said there will teams down south who will take him. Having said that if he is on 10k a week that is a joke, he might not want to go unless he gets 10k else where. I think he has kicked a ball 3 times for us over 3 years. 10k could be spent on a player with twice the ability. I think rossiter will erect a Statue of mcparland for getting him up here and on 10k a weekšŸ™ˆ. Total jokešŸ‘.



01 Apr 2019 19:05:41
he has been forced to apologise by the club. after all dave king and the club badly need the 20 million. does he mean it, I don't think so. he wants out of rangers and openly admits it. get rid of him asap.



01 Apr 2019 21:17:56
When did he openly admit this?



02 Apr 2019 07:59:17
Personally, I think fredo will remain with us until the end of the summer transfer window at least. Might do a dembele and leave near the end but heā€™ll have a chance again to do some damage in the right area of the pitch. I could forgive him easilier for Sunday if it wasnā€™t for all the other disciplinary stuff with the petulant bookings etc. He needs to grow up. One fact still remains though, twice in 2 games now he has been raked down the Achilles with an opposing players stods and nothing has happened to either of them, that cannot be right.



02 Apr 2019 08:01:40
As I said below, no chance in hell of anyone paying Ā£20 mill for a player who gets 5 red cards a season. Name one other Ā£20 mill player anywhere in the world with a disciplinary record like that. There aren't any.



02 Apr 2019 09:13:21
Diego Costa.



02 Apr 2019 09:40:14
Luis suarez.



02 Apr 2019 11:40:46
What season did costa or suarez get five red cards?



02 Apr 2019 11:47:14
Lawrence shankland.



02 Apr 2019 11:56:46
Paulinblue ryan jack got five reds in six months last year, he has settled down.



02 Apr 2019 13:21:23
Suarez may never have gotten 5 reds in a season but he's repeatedly committed a more serious offence and been punished yet people don't seem to hold it against him. We'll never get 20 for morelos.



02 Apr 2019 13:41:43
Suarez turns up in the big games and is on the park to contribute, no point playing big games with ten menšŸ‘.



02 Apr 2019 16:59:48
Sergio ramos mabey not worth 20 mill now but he was the only other player to have 5 reds in a season.



01 Apr 2019 18:48:47
Michael Stewart lambasting rangers tonight again on radio Scotland tonight again. Peanut heed is an angel according to him. What a balloon.



01 Apr 2019 19:01:52
Couldn't give a hoot what that toss pot thinks mate.

Can only ever write a column after running through a thesaurus for fancy sounding words that make him look smart. Probably doesn't even know what half of them mean!



01 Apr 2019 21:07:05
I met him p in fife a few year back with his wife and baby daughter and he sat at a table we were at in a beer garden I spoke to him for about 20min and he appeared ol
I can believe how much he now dislikes Rangers
When I spoke to him there were murmuring of him possibly being offered a chance to train with Rangers
Thank the lord he was not offered that chance as he has turned out to be right little James Delahunt.



02 Apr 2019 11:40:34
It's not an offence to be able to wind up Rangers players.

Not terribly difficult either it would appear.



02 Apr 2019 12:00:45
Meco, correct, however players need to think implications re fights stabbing etc there actions could have.
Three atabbed one fighting for his life, never acceptable.
Bizarre bit it was all Celtic fans involved.



02 Apr 2019 15:04:11
Jboy, surely that says more about the fans than the antics of players. I have never felt the need to start, or be involved in, a riot based on what an opposition player does. Nor have I ever felt the need to physically abuse any player or opposition fan who annoys me. People have to start taking responsibility for their own actions and stop trying to pass the blame on to someone else.
By the way this in response to your first statement, not the second. This is a a completely separate issue, which unfortunately, could lead to a tightening of the licensing laws. Seems that law makers across the world take the easy way out and punish us all for the problems of the few.



02 Apr 2019 16:31:48
Stayb yes but players need to think more, hence remember police got involved re butcher woods etc.
My second statement is an attempt to point out this was not two groups of fans who supported different clubs as some media outlets infer.



01 Apr 2019 18:28:19
Recap from yesterday's game. 2nd half 10 man Rangers outplayed there 11. An unfortune mistake from our captain gave them there winner. I still have faith in Stevie G, couple of additions in the summer, and get the players that are out, fit, we have a good squad. Onwards and upwards.



01 Apr 2019 18:38:01
Not an unfortunate mistake a ludicrous mistake from a player who deals in them.



01 Apr 2019 19:11:57
It was a miss-placed pass, happens all the time in football. T.



01 Apr 2019 19:45:47
How many goals have we lost in the last ten minutes because of tav poor or sloppy play.



02 Apr 2019 13:42:52
Can't be unfortunate when he is prone itšŸ‘.



02 Apr 2019 14:59:27
My own thoughts on Tav is signed by breadman which says lot. If he's worth 8m grab it and allow SG to add to squad better. There are more talented and reliable wing backs out there than him.



01 Apr 2019 18:06:53
Morelos never even touched brown he rakes his studs down his ankle then alfie gives him a slight push and he goes down like a sack of totties (parden the pun) why does brown want him sent off does he not want to play us 11 v 11 to me that's cheating and a cowardly act and that goes for broadfoot and McKenna as well they want an unfair advantage in the game šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§.



01 Apr 2019 18:31:27
What Morelos should have done was went down holding his ankle, I wonder if the linesman would have done something then. No excuses though he has to learn, every team will provoke him.



01 Apr 2019 18:32:47
Thetinman take the blinkers off true he didn't make contact with scumbags face but did flick elbow needs sold dragging club name in gutter.



01 Apr 2019 19:02:51
Spot on Scotty. Need to learn to be clever and a bit more of the dark arts. The smellies aren't going to suddenly stop doing it so if you can't beat them, join them.



02 Apr 2019 08:03:31
Yip, done like a kipper by brown. Look at the way Brown goes down his legs in particular, itā€™s disappointing that Morelos has fell into this trap hook line and sinker.



01 Apr 2019 17:03:01
just put an add in gumtree--"for sale" brainless sour faced striker. first 10 million takes him. simple isn't it? ---he has played his last game for us -good riddance.



01 Apr 2019 17:15:58
Decee how boring back the lad. He will play again.



01 Apr 2019 17:16:15
I didn't know Griffiths was being sold by the unwashed.



01 Apr 2019 17:38:02
Doiger you nailed it!



01 Apr 2019 17:50:03
Deecee, a bit harsh my friend. Yes punish him, fine him. But he's still a quality player and no doubt Rangers will want to put him in the shop window again to achieve top dollar.



01 Apr 2019 18:13:11
Who would pay that kind of money for a player who is sent off as often as he is? I'd be disappointed if we ever did.



01 Apr 2019 18:34:11
Doiger, He said 10 million.



01 Apr 2019 18:35:33
The stuck his discipline will be with him in your shop window lucky if we get couple million



01 Apr 2019 16:37:58
Hate to say it but yesterday's defeat may be the best for Rangers Football Club and our supporters, why? Because wee Lennon may become permanent manager and we know he is tactically useless.



01 Apr 2019 17:09:36
scotty007, for that and a number of other reasons your conclusion, although painful today, could be spot on.



01 Apr 2019 18:39:48
I think we would be better concentrating on our team and not worry about them.



01 Apr 2019 18:56:34
Lennons tactically useless! Hahaha! Done no bad yesterday against the diddy Uve got in charge! Al take that tactically useless guy every day of the week over the out of his depth clown currently managing u lot!



02 Apr 2019 08:29:50
LH86 take the blinkers off for a second fella.

done no bad? his team were out played by team men for the majority of the 2nd half and he had no answers. was a mistake by us that gave you win.

i have many scpetic fan friends and they agree mate.



02 Apr 2019 14:36:50
Scott, agree Lennon is an arse and best chance for us getting league back but his players antics were obviously his strategy and he outfox ed us. Our team needs to grow up and have 11 on park for 90 mins.



01 Apr 2019 16:26:34
4 games ban for morelos so what is that 10 games fo the season. 10 games Lafferty or Defoe would be desperate to play in. What is the point in bringing him back for the last 3 games of season . Time to tell him his seasons over. We have nothing to play for now so time to see if Lafferty and Defoe have a future here.



01 Apr 2019 17:04:41
Time to tell him his rangers career over
Someone grow a set n stop accepting his behaviour.



01 Apr 2019 18:41:42
Till a die the board need to give it serious consideration in selling him after yesterday. If the money is there I would take.



02 Apr 2019 08:31:33
agree with you i wouldn't play him again this season. and that goes for worrall, kent, lassana

neither of them will be here next season so let's give some game time to katic, middleton, atekeyi etc

these guys are our players and we need to see if they are upto the job.



01 Apr 2019 15:42:48
Just saw slow motion footage of the sending off. It was a fore arm flick to the chest in response to provocation, not an elbow to the face.

Should be downgraded to a yellow but it won't be.

Morelos is an idiot, but Brown is an absolute disgrace.



01 Apr 2019 16:08:29
4 game ban is your answer. Surprise!



01 Apr 2019 17:42:06
When does arrogant behaviour become contempt and then ungentlemanly behaviour and bringing the game into disrepute.



01 Apr 2019 14:52:56
Stevie G it's time for you to tell Morelos he has played his last game for us.
He is a liability, an embarrassment, and in my opinion he has contributed greatly to our demise this season. Trouble now is that his value will drop through the floor due to his undisciplined and petulant behaviour, and clubs will lose interest in signing him. This decision is very much long overdue. No doubt all you Morelos fans will shoot me down, so go on fire away, I really don't care, he IS a waste of space and he will be found out wherever he goes.



01 Apr 2019 15:23:32
Ritchie1, i agree with your post. There's no doubt the young man is a talent but if Gerrard can't control his petulance then the boy is in danger of ruining a potential great playing career.



01 Apr 2019 15:45:24
you would think that the training staff at Ibrox would have got it into his head by now, if they taught him to laugh in the faces of people like brown and their antics it would have a greater effect on the opposition, and keep him on the park, but it would seem that he either thinks he knows better than them or he just won't listen.



01 Apr 2019 16:21:23
It's time for the Rangers management team and the board to send Morelos to anger management classes. If that doesn't help then sell him for whatever we can get, after all we only paid just over a Ā£1m for him.



01 Apr 2019 17:19:48
One of the main issues is his lack of English. He can not communicate with team mates or understand they are trying to calm him down
Two years and his command of English language has only improved marginally.
All communication at training through Candeias.



01 Apr 2019 17:40:27
If we havenā€™t already used the expertise of a sports psychologist then surely we must now. There are now no excuses for Morelos or for the football club who must take some responsibility in managing the issue.



01 Apr 2019 19:33:19
Ritchie 1, your 100% correct, the mans nothing but a liability, sooner he's gone the better, Defoe and Lafferty 4 4 2, for rest of season.



02 Apr 2019 08:33:23
one of the biggest problems is we don't have a real captain or someone in the changing room to take a grip of him and sort him out

you reckon guys likes gough etc would have let him act liek that after 1st red of season?



01 Apr 2019 14:47:09
Morelos 4 game suspension. What's people's thoughts? Is that him finished or should he come back for the last 3 games?



01 Apr 2019 16:28:53
Nope time to tell him seasons over. Maybe even suspend him for a few weeks and send him home to columbia to have a good think about his future .



01 Apr 2019 18:43:34
Iā€™m sure he will play in the last 3 games then will move on in the summer. He thinks he is better than he is and wants to leave. He has failed to deliver when it nattered and needs to move on.



01 Apr 2019 13:53:32
Just watched the slow motion video of broon raking Morelos heel and morelos arm did not even touch broon.

Def miscarriage of justice and Gers should pursue a red card rescind with broon being retrospectively given a red for simulation.



01 Apr 2019 14:36:38
Bluebilly. You can't live hands.



01 Apr 2019 14:46:19
Irrespective if there wasn't contact, you can't throw elbows about and expect to get away with it. Morelos has given the ref a decision to make. Brown is a prick and set out to wind up Morelos, however he bit at the first time of asking.



01 Apr 2019 14:52:12
Bluebilly. I'm glad there is someone else thinks the same as me. You'd think Broon had been poleaxed by an uppercut the way he fell. Didn't stop him laughing did it? Absolute moron. It would be funny if the red card was rescinded though.



01 Apr 2019 15:18:11
Not a hope in Hell the card will be rescinded Yes Brown did stamp on the foot off Alfredo But he reacted Yes he didnā€™t touch him But there was stimulation So thatā€™s an outomatic Red card.



01 Apr 2019 15:21:16
Blue billy and doiger
The intent was there, would be surprised if his red card was rescinded, walked right into Browns trap as did Kent and Halliday, Brown is a badā€™n to us and a hero to Celtic supporters and Lennon, make no mistake it was a game plan, really maddening lads but what goes around comes around, our day will come, forget about Brown, heā€™s no balls, was afraid to play outside Scotland. His grinning and antics should be dealt with by the powere that be.



01 Apr 2019 15:27:59
Bluebilly, i also said that when watching it, however the intent was there. Also Broon intended to harm Morelos with his studs so why does Broon not get punished. After all the linesman saw everything. Please someone explain .



01 Apr 2019 16:30:06
Brown should be charged for inciting a riot, it's ok to provoke players on the park but not the fans.



01 Apr 2019 11:37:50
Hearing on Sky Sports about stabbings that took place yesterday after the game. Regardless of which team you support this is not good. Again bringing negative headlines to both clubs and Scottish football

Possibility of supporters representatives from both clubs to meet to discuss what can be done to improve things in the future.



01 Apr 2019 17:48:24
Itā€™s the job of the clubs, the captains and all players to ensure an example is set on the park. Stewards getting injured as supposes fans enter the pitch, somr even entering the pitch with children in there arms? WTF
Club captain celebrating in front of away fans then flinging the ā€˜get it up uā€™ sign. Itā€™s giving the neds even more reason to cause chaos afterwards. No one should be getting stabbed or lose their life after watching a game of football. Itā€™s disgusting!



01 Apr 2019 18:49:37
Its the job of uneducated scumbags who choose to carry a knife.



01 Apr 2019 07:57:17
Tough one to take with the late goal yesterday, that could easily have went our way with how the game was panning out. Forrest took his chance where we wasted ours a couple of times. No excuse for Fredo yesterday, he was done like a kipper by Brown and will never learn I donā€™t think. He shouldā€™ve hit the deck clutching his ankle and played him at his own game.

Moving forward Iā€™d like to see McCrorie in every week now along with Katic until the end of the season. We need to know if Katic is going to be good enough even for back up and we just canā€™t at present. Worrall has never done enough to justify his first pick status and will return to NF so why play him now with nothing to play for ourselves.



01 Apr 2019 08:10:15
Youā€™re spot on wee_bear
Brown did exactly what he was told to do by Lennon, nearly did the same with Kent, Morelos just wasnā€™t savvy enough to see what was happening, Halliday got angry with Brown for good reason? First half they were better team, second half was Rangers, yet they scored the decisive goal, sickening šŸ„“
The camera showed Brown sneering and laughing, not good. But lastly thus fighting after the game is crazy, bringing knives anywhere is a criminal act, especially a football game, get them caught, no place for them.



01 Apr 2019 08:19:16
Agree with you weebear. I'd also like to add i thought Kamara didn't put a foot wrong when he came on. Very good player who can find space out of nothing. A lot of positives but again discipline doing us big time.



01 Apr 2019 12:38:59
Agree Kamara and McCrorie must be the two going forward.



01 Apr 2019 13:32:30
I thought Jack had a poor game, losing the ball frequently, Kamara looked far more solid. Ryan J is normally steady, just not yesterday. Was good to see a rection from the players in the 2nd half and we played better with 10 men on the park!



01 Apr 2019 14:57:49
we played better with 10 men? that's because we have become used to it with crackpot Morelos's record.



31 Mar 2019 22:47:00
Goodnight to all my fellow bears.
Its not all that bad, keep your chins up. After all, it could be worse, you could be a tim!



01 Apr 2019 06:28:55
Dilly dilly.



31 Mar 2019 22:40:58
I agree with the comments about today's match. We could have won in the end. Morelos cost us again. However, I know I'm bias but Brown is a disgrace. He deliberately bullies and provokes, cheating in other words. He escapes without punishment and Morelos, Kent and Halliday are the bad guys. There's a pattern developing here isn't there. If the retrospective video nonsense can ban a player for an offence why then can't Brown be charged and banned. In golf, tennis and rugby to name just three other sports, players don't cheat like this to gain advantage. Brown clearly went out of his way to get Morelos sent off. Let's keep positive though about our team today in the second half. They are not that much better than us so onwards and upwards next season.



01 Apr 2019 07:05:00
Lol what actually could Brown be punished for though? Clutching at straws mate you've got a total lunatic playing for uz that gets sent off every second week knowing he goes straight back into your team.



01 Apr 2019 07:16:38
Fellow bears. I agree with most comments regarding Brown. However, he is an engine in midfield for the manky mob and his team spirit is never questioned. We lack that kind of player and that's what we should be looking to bring into our team. Morelos should know better by now but I can't defend him anymore. SG's after match comment says it all. Beat Brown and Co at their own game by showing heart and passion for the shirt you are wearing. Kent showed it and my only regret is he didn't skelp the thug hard enough. šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§.



01 Apr 2019 07:59:52
What are you going to charge Brown with?
I wish we had a 23 yr old Brown?
Heā€™s a wind up merchant happens at every level up and down the country. HOOK, LINE AND SINKER.



01 Apr 2019 09:36:18
Tompo88. Maybe there should be something like bringing the game into disrepute or inciting violence. His action at the end could have done just that and been a criminal offence. Or maybe it is just that a lot of neds play football with the brains to match.



01 Apr 2019 10:17:51
Morelos took the bait and suffered the consequences.
There is a great player inside there but until he learns to walk away and keep his head he will always be a liability.
Look how many goals he has already scored. How many more COULD he have scored by staying on the park for 90 minutes?
Even SG cannot defend him any more.
Lucky not to have 2 reds imo. Raising your hand to another player is just stupid. Even if it is handbags at 20 paces. Look at the photos all kicking around and it looks like a Mike Tyson smash!
Players have goto to learn to walk away. The best response you can give is not an elbow or a slap. it's a goal against them

Anyway, it's over and now it's onwards to the next game.



01 Apr 2019 10:25:13
You are absolutely right Password, it is just annoying to watch Broon's antics which he always gets away with.

Brown should have been at least booked for his part in Morelos incident where the ball is nowhere near any of them and he makes contact with Alfredo.
Canā€™t understand why you get booked celebrating a goal with your own fans but not when you goad the opposition fans, no wait you do unless your Scott Brown.
He should have been sent off for 3 yellow card offences, Kent has to go for lifting his hands aswell.
Not seen penalty incident again but thought it was a penalty at the time.
